Da Ming looked at her in great surprise.
"Young Miss, this won't do. There are so many pitiful people in Phoenix City, how can we possibly help them all?"
"Help whoever you can, do as I say!"
Da Ming then said "Oh," and added, "Miss, you are so kind."
After muttering those words, he turned to get the medicine. The old woman wanted to thank him again, but he had already started walking towards the backyard.
She wanted to discuss it with her father. She planned to apply for a business license for a clinic at the government office, and then personally diagnose and prescribe medicine for patients.
When she shared her thoughts with Luo Tianhe, he immediately objected.
“Zhiwan, I know that you’ve been collecting and identifying medicinal herbs over the years, and you have a basic understanding of some commonly used prescriptions. But you’re not a doctor. What is a doctor? A doctor saves lives. You think you can prescribe medicine just because you know a little about herbs? What if you delay someone’s treatment?”
“Father, I not only know about medicinal herbs, but I can also take people’s pulse.”
"Impossible. You haven't studied medicine with a doctor, how could you possibly diagnose a patient's pulse? If you delay the patient's treatment, you could face legal trouble. I don't agree with you doing this."
"Father, I really know how to take a pulse, and I can also prescribe medicine. If you don't believe me, I'll take your pulse now, and then you can go find a doctor to take your pulse and see if what I said is the same as what the doctor said."
While Luo Tianhe was still somewhat skeptical, he extended his wrist.
"Go ahead and examine me. I just had my pulse checked at the clinic the day before yesterday. Let's see how different your diagnosis is from what the doctor said."
Luo Zhiwan reached out and placed four fingers on his wrist, her eyes slightly narrowed as she carefully observed the pulse.
After a moment, she withdrew her hand and said in a serious tone:
“Dad, there’s nothing seriously wrong with your internal organs, but your back pain is quite severe. Moreover, you have cold-dampness back pain, which worsens especially in autumn when the weather is cold and damp. Occasionally, your tongue coating will also turn white.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Tianhe paused, looking at her with a puzzled expression.
"Zhiwan, where did you learn this? Didn't your father teach you?"
“Father, you’re not a doctor, so how can you teach me? To tell you the truth, after I jumped into the Willow Creek River with Yiming in my arms that day, I was saved by the heavens and didn’t die. Later, I discovered that I seemed to have some kind of spiritual connection. I not only know medicine, but I also know kung fu.”
She said these words to prevent her father from suspecting her.
After pondering for a moment, Luo Tianhe nodded as if he had understood something.
“No wonder you haven’t seemed like yourself lately. I see. The illness you just described is the same as what the doctor said the day before yesterday. If you’re really confident in being able to diagnose and prescribe medicine, then go to the government office and apply for a license. I support you.”
Seeing that her father had finally agreed, Luo Zhiwan was overjoyed and couldn't stop smiling.
"Thank you, Dad. I'll go now."
She was eager to start practicing medicine at the clinic, hoping it would not only boost the pharmacy's business but also allow more people who couldn't afford medical fees to benefit from the services.
